"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

In all seriousness...

I made a bet with my girlfriend and let's just say I lost when I expected 99% not to lose. I mean ****, it surprised her too. Now I have to do a dance of the stripping variety for her. I really don't have a major problem with it, but I'm not really feeling it which will make me awkard as hell when I do actually do it with no confidence. Dancing is really not my thing, but I love it at parties for some reason. I'll probably just have to man up, do it, and laugh about it later. I might actually throw back a beer or two in preparation, haha.

1. Any way to maybe flip the script? Maybe drag her up and make her start dancing in front of me at the same time.

2. Any song recommendations? Haha.
 

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

"Bite off more than you can chew; THEN CHEW IT!"
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Suck it up. The same thing happened to me. I lost a lap dance bet to a girl on the five question game-I beat about twenty people before losing to her (smart girl). I used Fergie's London Bridges, and she loved it.

She was on my c*ck before the song was over. She loved it so much, she promised me a lap dance in return anyway.
